High Performing in Seven Other Categories; Ranked among Top Three Hospitals in Illinois

MAYWOOD, IL – Loyola University Medical Center ranks among the top three Illinois hospitals (among 200 hospitals) and has six nationally ranked specialties in U.S. News & World Report's 2018-19 Best Hospitals rankings.

U.S. News evaluated more than 4,500 hospitals nationwide. To achieve a national ranking, a hospital must be ranked among the nation's top 50 hospitals in a given specialty. A high performing specialty is among the top 10 percent in the nation.

U.S. News' Best Hospitals rankings assess hospital performance across 16 specialty areas based on an extensive data-driven analysis that looks at structural characteristics and processes of care, outcomes and mortality, patient safety, hospital reputation among physicians and number of patients treated within the specialty. For the 2018-19 rankings, only 158 hospitals of over 4,500 evaluated across the U.S. were ranked in at least one specialty area.
